Lyrics

The Abyss Attraction
--------------------

How can you explain this anxiety inside your veins
and warm this unbearable snatch of fury
a life is betrayed between your hands
dripping and tearing

you feel the abyss attraction
you feel the abyss attraction

how can you get better when you feel pleasure inflicting pain
and no one is there to make you see you are wrong
loose your body in rooms of misery
all your senses are useless

you feel the abyss attraction
you feel the abyss attraction

Crime (Reprise)
---------------

Inner sea under the burning sun
calling me the guilty of a crime
a million miles so long lost in the desert sand
undercover of this sinner light
my hidden name is more than you will never know of me
- that's the crime

Independence
------------

Weakness
Future is hopeless
Mistakes will teach us nothing
cos' there's nothing to fight for

You've got to pay the price
I'm lost in a sea of vice
What's the game we're playing
Golden promises

Smoke in your eyes
And dreams of dark and blue
Disappointed on and on
Misunderstanding

The party's over
I ran through the woods
Beyond the clearing
Alone with the night

And I sat on the floor
Where are we going
Sinking, you and me
Words have nonsense

At the still point of destruction
Deliverance is hopeless
Disappearing is the sentence
Independence

Don't Look Back (Never Look Back)
---------------------------------

your ghost is back at home
he's behind you
hear his little footsteps

don't look back never look back

it was so many years ago
you driving drunk over the child

it's hard to be a normal man
when someone whispers in the dark
little boy with bloody face
trapped inside the car engine

don't look back never look back

motor

The Cassandra Complex
